This last Geek Critique of the year will be a blind review sponsored by me. It will be a Christmas special in the making, bomb style no doubt. The cigar will be well rested/aged and mailed out to you in the third week of October. So, if this schedule suits you, then throw your name in the hat here in this thread and I will do a random draw for the 5 reviewers. The cut off date for entering the draw will be Sunday October 13th, 11:59pm. All members in good standing are welcome to participate regardless of any previous Geek Critiques you may have done. Let me be the first to wish you all a Very Merry Christmas!



The Reviewers:

1. Beegerply (Byron)
2. nirab (Brian)
3. Silverstix (Tom)
4. arrow34 (Ed)
5. Deener27 (David)

Due Date: November 27th, 2019

Note: A reviewer who posts their review late will receive neutral feedback. A reviewer who does not post at all will receive negative feedback. There are always exceptions to the rule and a reasonable excuse for tardiness or a no show will be respected and thus not counted against the reviewer. Our sponsoring members and our administrators make the choice of who is to participate in any particular Geek Critique and can be better informed of their choices with this initiative in place.

no doubt this will be epic, unfortunately I have now done back-to-back so will step aside and let others enjoy.

Mine just landed and my mailbox will never be the same.  For a Geek Critique... you said it was more a bomb style and it was! :)  Thanks!  As you mentioned the mystery cigar is the plain one, will put it away to rest after it's trip and will review soon!

Deener27

I received it yesterday.  It was so large that it didn't fit the mailbox so the mail guy put it on the porch, which I was not expecting for a Geek Critique.

Opened the box and what a line up.

Thanks for the generosity.  Can't wait to review the cigar.
